Cats are unusual animals that constantly surprise their owners with something.
For example, many people wonder why a pet approaches a person and starts chewing his hair.
Let's find out what causes this behavior of the cat.
Reasons for unusual cat behavior
Remember how cats behave towards each other. You have probably noticed that it is typical for them to lick the fur of another individual.
This behavior primarily speaks of the animal's affection for you. The cat regards you as a member of its family.
This phenomenon is called allogrooming, and it is typical primarily for those families where several animals live.
When cats constantly lick each other, it means that they enjoy each other's company. Therefore, when the animals switch to humans, it also indicates their pleasure.
In addition, by licking hair, cats mark "their" person in this way. For the same purpose, pets "butt" a person with their head: the scent glands are located exactly in those places with which the cat touches you.
